Five City of Owensboro Neighborhood Alliances will host neighborhood cleanups this year.  The cleanups will take place from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m.  All residents in the cleanup areas are encouraged to help beautify the neighborhood by picking up litter along sidewalks and streets on their cleanup day. 

The Sanitation Department will provide free curbside pickup for junk furniture, appliances and other items to its residential customers in this neighborhood alliance area.  Items must be left at the curb by the Friday night prior to the day of the cleanup.  If you have large items to set out, please call the City Action Line at 270-687-4444 or e-mail [email protected] BY THE WEDNESDAY BEFORE THE CLEANUP.  Smaller items must be bagged or boxed.  The sanitation crews CANNOT pick up construction debris/materials, yard waste, dirt, paint, or any type of liquid.
